Annual physical Today
I got my annual physical today, it is funny how I say "annual" which it has been over 10 years since my last one.
I think I was scared of what they would find and I still will not know the results of my blood tests until early next week. I would urge anyone who is quitting or has quit to go and get it done. It really does give you good piece of mind. They took 4 vials of blood so they can check my liver, kidney, thyroid and other functions. They gave an HIV test and and EKG. So far the Dr. has been positive, my BP was still a little bit high so I am going to be taking LISINOPRIL for that.
I just want to say I recommend going and don't be scared like I had been for the past decade. It is worth it on our path of recovery to have the knowledge that you can only get from this type of exam.
